Mr George Opesika Aggudey, one of the presidential aspirants of the Convention People's Party (CPP), has urged the party's leadership to conduct thorough investigation into the conduct of some presidential aspirants that led to malpractices in the national delegates' congress of the party in Kumasi.
He accused some of his colleague aspirants of trying to manipulate the electoral system to enable them have unfair advantage over him in the race.
Mr Aggudey told newsmen that the names of some of the delegates who were perceived to be his supporters had been intentionally deleted from the voters' register and threatened to take legal action to nullify the results of the elections.
He said it was imperative for the leadership of the party to ensure that the elections were devoid of all forms of malpractices in order to choose a rightful leader who could lead the CPP to victory.
Mr Aggudey said he would use all constitutional means to fight against moves to deprive him of leading the party.
When contacted Mr Riley Opoku, the congress chairman, confirmed that Mr Aggudey had submitted an official protest letter but declined to comment.
He, however, gave the assurance that the leadership was engaged in discussions to address the anomalies for a successful congress.
Meanwhile, counting of the ballot is underway after all night long voting by the delegates.
Officials from the National Electoral Commission are supervising the elections that are expected to choose a presidential candidate and national executives for the party.
